Family Reunion Air Force Style

Over the skies of Afghanistan, during a combat mission, one B-52 pilot got a surprise of a lifetime – “hooking” up with family.

“I was surprised to hear her voice,” said Capt. Jeremy Holmes, 40th Air Expeditionary Group B-52 aircraft commander. “To make absolutely sure it was her, without throwing out any names over the radio, I asked if there were any Packers fans on the jet tonight. Right away the boom operator said, ‘yeah, the co-pilot is a Packers fan.’ then I knew for sure it was her.”

It really is a small world, huh?

America is not at war.
The Marines are at war, America is at the mall.
